Forums - Sales Discussion - Xbox 360 Vs. Playstation 3 2012 - *February* Update

Had a thought tonight, if MS do what I think is a possibility at this stage, it would be fucking genius and slaughtering. I'm not going to say what (although I have told some people to back me up to say I did say it before it happened )

If they don't do it, I'll tell ya'll in January.

Okay so...

The 360 should drop next Week, due to the lack of 360 MW3 bundles (Which Im assuming caused about 75% of the boost). The PS3 should rise, simply due to it being the Holiday season, and the point that Uncharted 3 and MW3 didn't cause any kind of substantial boost.

Probably gonna be a small 360 win for the Week.


Should be anywhere from a 40-80k WOW boost in Japan off of new colors and bundles, so I would expect a comfortable PS3 victory.


are there new color bundles releasing next week in Jp?

both 11/17

but i don't really think new colors will boost a lot since it already out of top 100(old color one still in top 100)

oh I knew about those bundles..just didn't know when they were out... :( I wish I could have that metallic blue one

@DJoe: but for some reason HW always see a nice boost with new colors in Japan, so who knows, at least a 10k or so boost I suppose

So we have a new game afoot: Guess Seece's cunning plan for 360 domination.

$100 cash back from Black Friday through to the end of the year, worldwide. The price cut that isn't a price cut.

A friend of mine sent me a text last night saying he saw a BF ad for Sam's Club that had the 250gb 360 for $199. Did a quick little search and came up with this from our buddies, http://n4g.com/news/885665/black-friday-2011-sams-club-with-250gb-xbox-360-at-199-99-wii

 

This surely can't hurt the effort. BF is going to be insane if the above is any indication of what retailers are going to be selling consoles for. Not that I didn't already know that but a $199 250gb 360 is just a great deal.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

I think Halo Anniversary will move some hardware. In a way, (or more to the point, in my opinion :D ) I see it as a Halo re-birth. It's the passing of the torch from bungie to 343 studios and they started with the game that started it all, not to mention the second week of the MW3 push.... People seem to think everyone that bought the game bought it in the first week... Afraid not.



tag for latter!
